WARNING
■ Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or
serious injury.
●Use tires of the size specified for your vehicle.
● Maintain the recommended level of tire inflation pressure.
● Do not drive at speeds in excess of the speed limit or the speed limit spec-
ified for the snow tires being used.
● Snow tires should be installed on all wheels.
■ Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely,
and may cause death or serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains being
used or 50 km/h (30 mph), whichever is lower.
● Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
● Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting
operations that cause sudden engine braking.
● Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle con-
trol is maintained.
NOTICE
■ Repairing or replacing snow tires (vehicles with the tire pressure warn-
ing system)
Request repairs or replacement of snow tires from Toyota dealers or legiti-
mate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the opera-
tion of the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.
■ Fitting tire chains (vehicles with the tire pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not function correctly
when tire chains are fitted.

AVENSIS_OM_OM20C20E_(EE)
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Turning on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the
windshield effectively.
● If you turn off, the windows may fog up more easily.
● The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
■ Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the out-
side/recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effec-
tive in preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior.
● Vehicles with air conditioning system : During cooling operation, setting the
recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
■ When the outside temperature falls to nearly 0°C (32°F) (vehicles with air
conditioning system)
The dehumidification function may not operate even when is
pressed.
■ Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.
● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.
■ Air conditioning system operations when the engine is stopped due to
the Stop & Start system (vehicles with Stop & Start system)
When the engine is stopped due to the Stop & Start system operations, the air
conditioning cooling, heating and dehumidif ication functions turn off and only
ambient temperature air is blown, and there is a possibility that the blowing of
ambient temperature air will stop. To prevent the air conditioning system from
turning off, press the Stop & Start cancel switch to deactivate the system.
■ When the windshield is fogged up and the engine is stopped due to the
Stop & Start system (vehicles with Stop & Start system)
Press the Stop & Start cancel switch to restart the engine and turn
on to defog the windshield. Simply pressing will restart the engine
and defog the windshield.
If the windshield continuously fogs up, press the Stop & Start cancel switch
and refrain from using the Stop & Start system.
■ When an odor comes from the air conditioning system while the engine
is stopped due to the Stop & Start system (vehicles with Stop & Start
system)

up, blocking your vision.
■ To prevent burns

ror defoggers are on.
● Do not touch the glass at the lower part of the windshield or to the side of
